I Will Make Jerusalem a Cup of Trembling: The burden of the word of the Lord for Israel, spoken by the Lord God, who stretched out the heavens. The Lord also laid the foundation of the earth and formed the spirit of man within him; bless His holy name.
See, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling to all nations around them. When these nations come around to siege Judah and Jerusalem, I will be there to defend them greatly. On that day, I, the Lord will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people.
Everyone that bothers themselves, who burden their country to have Jerusalem, will be cut into pieces. It does not matter if all people of the earth are gathered against Jerusalem, they will be cut into pieces.
Madness Dropped on the People
In that day, says the Sovereign Lord, I will hit every horse with great surprise and dread, and his rider with great madness. Yes, I will open My eyes wide upon the house of Judah, hitting every horse of the people with blindness.
The leaders and rulers of Judah will say in heart, “The inhabitants of Jerusalem will be my strength in the Lord of hosts, their God.” Yes, I the Lord will make the governors and rulers of Judah like a fireplace with a fire burning.
They will be like a torch of fire in a cluster of hay; and they will burn up all people around them, on the left and on the right, who come against Jerusalem. In that day Jerusalem will be inhabited again in her own right and place.
The Weak Will Be Like King David
The Lord will also save the tents of Judah first. This way the glory of the house of David and Jerusalem do not magnify or think higher of themselves than the rest of the house of Judah. At that time, the Lord will defend the citizens of Jerusalem.
The weakest man at that time will be like King David, and the house of David will be like God Almighty. They will all become as if the angel of the Lord is within them. It will be in that day that I, the Sovereign God, will look to destroy ALL nations that come against Jerusalem.
I will pour the spirit of grace and prayers on the house of David and the citizens of Jerusalem. They will look upon Me whom they have pierced and pricked. They will mourn. Yes, they will mourn for Him like one who mourns the loss of his only son.
All the Families of Judah and Their Wives
Yes, they will be bitterly mourning like one who lost his firstborn. At that time there will be great sadness and mourning in Jerusalem. It will be like the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.
The land will mourn, O, every family in Jerusalem will mourn. The family of the house of David, their wives, the house of Nathan and their wives, the house of Levi and their wives, the house of Shimei and their wives also.
All the families that remain and their wives will mourn. Blessed is the Sovereign Lord, forever. Amen.
